It looks to me that the Label's width is not tied to the explicitWidth of the renderer at measure time, only at layout time.
You can try binding label's width to "{explicitWidth - 14}". If you think the binding is too slow, then override the explicitWidth setter and set the Label's width then.

If the height of the Label cannot be completely determined from the explicitWidth of the renderer, then measuredHeight will not compute correctly.
